Remember that brief discussion a few days ago regarding how Juri's theme in SFV was really lousy? Well, even Hank Hill knows that Juri's theme isn't good.


This video made my day, and even I will admit that I really don't like her theme at all.

This Tumblr bro:
http://fyeahcontroversialcharacters...42/character-rock-pikmin-fandom-pikmin-reason

This has got to be a joke

Agreed. The whole "X is terrible because she/he gets in the way of my ship" excuse is just anyone's way of saying they hate a character for just existing.

I love Light x L as much as the next girl, but I hate how that's a big reason why Misa is considered the worst character in Death Note.
Shipping was a mistake.

Although I'm part of fandom a where shipping is only in small doses and some series where you shouldn't pair anyone and nobody does

I don't even know what characters are on that blog, I'm just going to work under the assumption that they're all cinnamon rolls who need to catch a break.

I will say that even if it's a support blog, seeing the reasons why characters are trashed labelled in their entries is kind of uncomfortable. Kind of opens wounds reminding a person of things like that. If I stumbled across the entries for my personal cinnamon rolls that are almost certainly on there and in a few cases already confirmed by the comments about it, I'd be outright triggered.

I'd rather view a safe zone than a trauma encyclopedia. See what happens when people actually set aside an area where no one trashes anything or something. It probably would end up faltering into some kind of dystopia, but at least it'd be a change of pace from the infinite "everything you have ever loved or ever will love sucks" mantra of the general internet.

Bubble now deals 25 damage in pokemon go

That's the most powerful I've seen for a basic attack.

Too bad Blastoise doesn't get that, only Squirtle

The most common reason submitted for character bashing according to that blog is because a given character "gets in the way" of a given few fan's ship's and OTP's.

So yah, shipping wars.... :T

yeah its a joke blog. I mean they got tag for toys.
I follow it for some good laughs
Wait until you see all the Hetalia entires that are much older.

Unsurprisingly, half of them are because "racist" or "gets in the way of someone's preferred ship". Not really something surprising when it comes to the Hetalia fandom.

Or if these characters are female, being ****s when they don't remotely sleep with everyone.

Poor poor Ukraine. :(

This is my life yo.

What also ticks me is when I have a good idea only to forget it a minute later and desperately try to remember what that good idea was. The bane of my existence I tell ya.

The comment section is just as expected of your average Pokemon GO related video. Jokes about the game's servers, mentions of the three step glitch, complaining about casuals that never played Pokemon before but like GO, blind hate for the game, and waiting for features that aren't even there yet.

I want to have a good physique but I can't stop eating pizza.

AAAAAH!
The worst thing about eating Pizza is that you can never find a good Pizza place


I'm starting to hate Pizza Hut, Dominos isn't a viable option sometimes, Papa John's is too far and you have to eat Little Ceasar's at the right time.

I should seriously consider penning a story about Trump taking over Sodor's railways and businesses.... Anybody wanna see that? - Afro

Yes you do.
I thought having the home menu open was all Nintendo needed to force you to patch.

If that isn't true then sweet!



I have The Extreme from FF8 stuck in my head. Normally that would be the exact opposite of a problem (because The Extreme is absolutely stellar music and is probably in my top 5) but not only is it making me want to replay the final boss of FF8 when I have better things to do, im also at work meaning I cant listen to it for real D:


RE: Niantic removing the step counter.

Great. GO just lost a huge reason for me to keep playing. If I cant even hunt down pokemon i dont have then there is no point for me.

If I have to download a bunch of unofficial apps just to play a stupid Pokémon game with efficiency, then it's a poorly made game and I would rather not waste my time and phone memory.

I'll still turn it on randomly on trips but it's completely unacceptable to have the game in this state.

Tbh, I don't care about the 3 step removal. But that's because I am fine with just moving around and seeing what pops up.

I'm sure though that when they fix the glitch, they will bring steps back.

I also was on Go today:

I caught a Hypno outside my Shoprite.

Maybe it wanted to lure in shoppers? What corporate scheme is this??

What exactly is the 3 step glitch?
The radar is supposed to display 9 Pokémon, with the nearest being the top left, and the farthest being the bottom right. Under each Pokémon, it's supposed to show no steps, or 1-3 steps, depending on how close you are to the Pokémon.

3 steps means it's within 1km from you.
2 steps means it's within 100m from you.
1 step means it's within 10m from you.
And no steps means you're right on top of it.

So it's essentially a game of hot and cold.

However, an update that came out in the US version, before the release in other regions, literally just broke the radar to always show three steps no matter how close to or far away from a Pokémon you are. Making it impossible to efficiently and finely hunt down Pokémon with just the game.

The "3 Step Glitch" renders the Nearby tracking Pokémon Useless, and it may make impossible to capture Pokémon in a Practical way.

Basically it shows Pokémon in the vicinity as beign three-steps away, but no matter how much you walk, it will always be 3 steps ahead.
